What to Watch For
A plethora of arms leads the Knighthawks into 2017. Three Division I commits on the bump and one of the better defensive shortstops in the state will provide stability from game to game. The season has high expectations for Coach Kimrey and the development of the offense could key a post-season run.
Players to Watch
Josh Pike, RHP, 2017 – NC State commit
Cameron Cotter, RHP, 2017 – NC State commit
John Clark Ouzts, RHP, 2017 – Charlotte commit
JT Jarrett, SS, 2017 – NC State commit
